Identical in size and price, both true pocket size 9mm that hold 11 or 12 rounds, really can’t make my mind up, for whatever its worth the hellcat holds one extra round. ( pictured is the optional hellcat OSP version)

Nothing bad to say about those, but also take a look at the Glock 43.

Depends if you are a millennial or not the hellcat comes with a red dot sight and we all know that the youths of today can't shoot with iron sights...

I've shot the hellcat and loved it. Heard nothing but good about the sig. I dont think you could go wrong with either. I plan on buying the hellcat as soon as we get through the rona

Sig personally. Go handle them, and as others said check the G43. I had the G42 and replaced with the 365. I loved the shooting of the glock, but when I actually handled all 3 at the same time the sig sat way better in my hand naturally. The way the tang rested in the web of my hand while drawing quickly lined up the sights almost perfectly every time, and the glock always aimed high.

I like my G43. It’s smaller and the recoil is not bad for such a small gun. Knock the factory sights off and get some night sights not that red dot BS.

Sig has clean lines imo. That's my vote but you can't go wrong either way.

the p365 is smooth operating as a compact. I carry it regularly but my accuracy with it compared to other weapons I own is not as great. Its not because the gun isn't well made, but it truly is made for close proximity protection.

Daughter originally wanted the Sig, finally went with the Hellcat. She loved it! Damn being out on the lake and a boating accident. Will get her another down the road, maybe, one day in the distant future!

Both good choices if you can afford them. Sprinfield Hellcat would be my vote.

best in class capacity of 11+1 and 13+1 with included extended magazine

I'd go with the sig. New production guns are kind of like new production cars in that they have to work out some of the bugs that show up. I have that sig and it is amazing. I also have the Springfield XDS and love it.

I want a hellcat but I'm probably gonna wait a year or two before I put my money down on one.

ETA I see a lot of the G43 recs itt too and it's a great gun. Although I prefer my m&p shield 9 (original, not the 2.0 or EZ). THE G43 just seems like it's gonna jump out of my hand every 3rd or 4th shot so I'm constantly adjusting my grip. I really wanted to love that gun but sold it after several trips to the range. Just wasn't for me. Maybe it's just me but the shield is a much better shooting gun than the G43 imo.
